Instagram Snapshots ~*May 2013*~

~1 May 2013~
My very courageous friend on the right of this picture is gonna shave her head for Hair for Hope tomorrow to raise awareness and raise funds for children cancer, and to donate her locks at the same time. Salute to her! Tonight was an impromptu meet up to date her hair before it is gone.
Here is my friend's shavee page: http://www.hairforhope.org.sg/index.php?/shavee/idetails/600

Family outing to the River Safari andto see Kai Kai and Jia Jia!




~1 May 2013~
We were really lucky to have JiaJia walking up and down like a catwalk model today when she is usually shy and hiding in her den. It turned out that she was outta her den walking up and down so much as she was feeling the urge to poo poo. Once she poo-ed, she headed back to her den and there was a unanimous "ohhhhh..." Also, we were lucky to snap this coz outta thispicture was a mass of people in all shapes and sizes.

Flashback: One of those emo moments I love coz I always believe that there is beauty in melancholy. Taken when I was sick a while back, 27h without food with headache and nausea building up together with tummy pain. My mood was picked up as I was on the way to a sumptuous dinner.

Winnie the Pooh quotes are always so meaningful.




~3 May 2013~
Another simple but brilliant Winnie the Pooh quote. Love it!

After 2 months of wearing glasses due to a cornea infection, I'm really missing my beautiful grey contact lens. When can I wear coloured lenses again?




~4 May 2013~
If I were to choose, I would want a notti little striped kitty that looks just as cheeky as this cat as my next pet.




~4 May 2013~
I have different groups of friends saying that I remind them of Emily the Strange or rather, Emily the Strange reminds them of me. It is the hair style and the dark love for some things morbid. I take that as compliment.

My new pair of glasses from Ray Ban with crizal lenses at a good price. I've already got a geeky turtle frame so here is a red frame for the bitchy office lady look.




~5 May 2013~
The hubby thinks my new red Ray Ban looks just like my current brand less turtle frame one. The red one has smoother lines and definitely more bitchy office lady while the turtle frame one is more oblong and bookish though I must admit that I could never deviate much from the protruding sides to be at the top instead of in the middle for a cat eye look.




~6 May 2013~
Love my nude ballerina suede shoes from Geox. Pity about the toe cleavage and the difficulty in removing stains from lights coloured suede.




~7 May 2013~
Favourite "most recent" picture of hubby and me. Hubby made this his profile pic on Facebook.
(Pardon the irregular size. Photos which I've cropped before uploading on Instagram couldn't be saved as the Instagram version in another file name.)

This totally perked me up during a bad PMS phase. Pretty DIY glitter nails on nude base. This effect doesn't look too bad on my short stubby nails. Yes, Fann Wong is in the background.

10th May 2013 -- a day which many in my organization are waiting for in bated breath. Salary adjustment on top of bonus. Wheet! This is the first time ever I actually look forward to pay day. I feel like this little creature here. What cute animal is this anyway? A slinky prairie dog or a chipmunk?




~11 May 2013~
His and hers homemade spaghetti. Hubby would always prefer "white" sauce while I would prefer "red".




~11 May 2013~
When you can't satisfy your milk tea craving at tea shake huts or bubble tea counters, the next best alternative would be pokka bottled milk tea from 7-11. Rich and creamy. Mmmmm... Totally reminds me of @brutal_turtle 's post the other time.

First time hearing of and eating bamboo clam. Really looks like bamboo. One of the dishes for MIL's Mother's Day dinner at a seafood restaurant.




~11 May 2013~
On the right are the bamboo clams which I shared on instagram earlier on for one of the Mother's Day dishes. However, the focal point of this photo are the GEODUCKS which is a type of phallic-looking clam. It is pronounced as "gooey duck".




~12 May 2013~
After 2.5 months of wearing glasses due to my cornea infection with ulcers, the specialist recently cleared me and given me the go-ahead to wear contact lens. One thing to note said he. "Please buy dailies instead of monthlies." I listened and spent about $300 worth of dailies just now. Of course i can't deviate from my grey so I bought them in dailies too. There was already an offer and 3 free pairs thrown in.

Throw back Thursday. Jan 2013. It has been a few years since the very beautiful @cindee_rella and I became acquainted via our blogs-- a Canadian and a Singaporean brought together with our deep connection in writing and similar passion for life. In this photo, many people commented that we look like sisters especially our noses! Lol. One friend even commented that we have the same eyes, same nose and same smile too.

Late night dinner/supper at a newly discovered HK cafe Le Ban. Wins Xin Wang hands down.




~19 May 2013~
Salted egg fries. Yummy tummy.

The world is not how it is, the world is how you perceive. Humans see what they want to see, not what it actually is. The eye sees only what the mind is prepared to comprehend.

Through my rose-tinted glasses at Phuket.

Reflection of bestie and me through my miu miu on a ferry to Phi Phi Island.




~22 May 2013~
Soaking up the sun and sea at Phi Phi Island. I admit. The wanderlust is stirring in me. Seeing friends on FB posting their Phuket photos made me recall my Phuket holidays. I have nothing but photos as a stash of beautiful memories to remind me of my impromptu Phuket holidays to celebrate my bestie's birthday.
(Pardon the irregular size. Photos which I've cropped before uploading on Instagram couldn't be saved as the Instagram version in another file name.)




~22 May 2013~
I have a personal agenda for each holiday-- to have a take-home experience of FIRST. First elephant ride with bestie at Phuket.




~23 May 2013~
Throw back Thursday. Gonna have a double J birthday dinner later with my precious godson and gal pals. Taken 2 years ago when he had spikey hair. I love this cool punk kid look coz he usually sports those Precious Moments gentle boy look.




~23 May 2013~
My birthday celebration begins today with a whole red snapper at Spruce! When I ordered this dish, I expected a fillet and not a whole fish! Godson ordered the same dish and needless to say, we couldn't finish. Happy birthday to us!




~24 May 2013~
A very unique birthday gift from a gal pal. I guessed it was a book as I unwrapped the gift. When I saw what it was, I was momentarily speechless. "I know what is gonna come out from my mouth would be unholy," I told my gal pal, "but this is a DAMN beautiful gothic bible la!"




~24 May 2013~
Continuing from the previous photo, I can't stop laughing at the words on the packaging. My gal pal really thinks for me. 1. Bimbotic 2. Trendy 3. Eco-conscious 4. Lazy ... Indeed, this is a really arty and fashionable Ed Hardy style bible.




~25 May 2013~
The Fullerton bear welcomes us for our weekend staycation.




~26 May 2013~
The beautiful bathroom in our staycation Fullerton Hotel Heritage Room is so huge that I spent 1h in there (not inclusive of soaking in the bathtub and showering). Well I was also watsapping dear friend @eccentrice while slathering moisturizer and blowing hair. Love their bath products here. Bliss!




~26 May 2013~
First gelish manicure and I love it! Love the smooth texture and thickness. Slight 2 tone with glitter and lace.

Two similar fortune slips in hubby's fortune cookie. What to make of this fortune?
